A while back I built a site for a recruitment company, they keep coming back to me to update the job vacancy section.

So I have to open up the html and add, remove, change all the jobs.

So is there a way I can make a page that loads up an xml file, but I guess it has to be a dynamic page, the job list does not always hold the same amount of jobs. So if say theres 10 jobs the page would automatically populate itself with the xml data.

Im a newb at this kinda web stuff so any advice is mucho apreciated.

Is XML even what I should be looking at to achieve my aim ?

I'd make it in PHP and let it read the stuff from a database. They probably have their data in a database anyway, so take it from the source. That way the info is never out of date.

But then you wont get as much job from them (on the other hand: doing this would take some time as well) :)
